Problem

Paper business cards get thrown away, and the moment a phone number, title, or link changes, the whole batch is out of date and has to be reprinted. Bridging a physical NFC card to a live, editable web profile is the interesting part: the card has to stay valid forever while the content behind it changes freely.

Approach

Tapline pairs a physical NFC card with a digital profile page. Tap-to-open: tap the card on any phone and the person's full profile — links, contact info, socials — opens instantly, with no app to install. Management: a dashboard lets people update their profile any time, so the same card always points to current information — nothing to reprint. Bilingual: English/Arabic via i18next. Built with React + TypeScript and deployed to Cloudflare Pages.

Outcome

A product that spans hardware and web — NFC in the real world backed by an editable web profile — showing product thinking beyond a single app screen.
